A True Gem

This campground is truly something special. The landscape is breathtaking, the trail leading back to the tent spots is definitely for those looking for something a little more challenging to get to, and the river is there for you to chill by to swim, fish, kayak, etc. There’s also a ton of wildlife. Saw some bald eagles, reptiles, fish, turtles, heard coyotes howling at night, and saw tracks of some larger animals. There’s some stores not too far away if you need things in a pinch. Colorado Bend State Park is right next door for those looking for some additional hikes and sights. And there’s several distilleries and vineyards in close proximity. I’ll definitely be coming back here.

Regular Visitor

This place is quiet and out of the way. Down in the canyon there is no cell service so you can break away from the modern world. Nestled right on the river, with a natural Sulphur Spring. A spring fed swimming pool cleaned weekly and cabins with all the amenities.

Off grid fishing camp

Beautiful scenery and easy access to the river. Roads are very rough though so make sure you have a high clearance vehicle.

Very Clean Fishing Camp

Lots of level, grassy, shaded sites.

The front part is for rv hookups, with the back road (will need a higher clearance vehicle) for tent/car camping. Lots of places to access the river. They also have a pool, the springs, showers and a bathroom, as well as cabins.

This is the campground my family always uses when we go as a large group. It is so simple with easy access to the river and hiking.

Preferred over the state park

I do prefer staying here over staying at the state park. It's easy to drive down the road to the park from here. You can walk down the gravel road in the campground too for more hiking. Bring an RV, tent, or stay in a fishing cottage for a reasonable fee. A little run down, but comfy beds and full kitchens. The sulphur smell isn't too bad. Consider bringing a kayak if the water levels are right. Lots of cats at the front office. Owners can sometimes be a little grumpy. Just be patient.

Beautiful sunrises and sunsets on the Colorado river

Sulphur Springs camp is a great get away place if you want to put all electronics away but don't have the willpower. There is no cell service or Internet/wifi! All cabins have your basics - beds/ stove/fridge/bathroom/kitchen. All linens and dishes/cookware/linens and bath towels are provided . You are near Barefoot Camp and Colorado Bend State Park so you have plenty of things to keep you busy if you are adventurous. The camp gets its name from the natural sulphur springs at one end of the camp.
